My neighbor (not Eric, different neighbor) picked up that goodwrench 305 from Lavelle-
Planning to put it in his in his newly acquired 49 ford with a TH350 behind it. Doesn't need to be a screamer, just a cruiser- but should have a little bit of rumpity rump to it.
Plan is to pull it apart, check it and then put back together and slip in a new cam.
What would a decent cam upgrade choice be... Figure low compression 8.5:1, stock heads, etc etc.
Was thinking a Comp XE 262 and advance it a couple degrees ... but not sure if there might be better choices.
